I sit in the dark,
Only partially fulfilled,
I feel as if my heart
Is not completely thrilled.

I feel this coldness growing,
As if i am not ready,
Inside me is a feeling,
The feeling of being empty.

I look around me,
Hoping to find the thing,
That I have long been searching,
To satisfy my feeling.

The thing I search for dearly,
Reminds me of a dove,
The thing I search for dearly,
Is nothing but a love.
